It was not long before we began doing experiments together in Chemistry
Readercon continues apace. So does the rest of my life, which is why I am reading slush.
1. I mean to post this a week ago, but it's been that kind of week: The Moment of Change has been very well reviewed at Weird Fiction Review. I am pleased to be name-checked, but even more pleased with the review as a whole. Rose Lemberg should edit more anthologies.
2. A friend of a college friend of mine has a son in this show: Pink Milk: A Magic Tragedy. I suspect I'd disagree with some of its directions of "loosely based" (Alan did like to watch Christopher play the piano, but they bonded over astronomy, chemistry and maths), but I like the fact of more Turing art out there. I like this image. Anyone in New York City, want to give me a review?
3. All right, I've been convinced to see Hitchcock's The Lodger (1927). I don't suppose I can get it on DVD in this country?
The trackpad on this machine is still broken. I suspect it is back to the Apple store today. Again. Knock it off, computer. You are not a metaphor.

Glad to hear it!
Thank you. Seriously, buy a copy...
You're welcome. I reckon I'll do that soon. I wish there were more bookshops available to me that would stock books like that--somehow it's easier to get round to getting them, that way.
I have a new trackpad! I didn't have to wait two to four days for it! I'm a lot less thwarted by the limitations of technology than I was this afternoon!
Excellent! I'm delighted by your state of significant less-thwartedness!
Amazing. This is actually helping to cheer me up after the double-whammy of hearing a friend encouraging a mutual friend to pursue someone (underlining, in my mind, the fact that nobody ever says anything like that to me) and seeing on Facebook that somebody I disliked rather a lot in high school (who has since apparently turned into a vaguely decent human being, but still, it's hard to forget some things) and his wife are expecting a second child. Thank you.
